Our Best street-Car System.

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal.
have read your editorial in Sundays issue
on the "Best Railway System" which we have
in this city and wish to thank yon for the vigor-
Gus manner in whch'you treating this impor-
tant subject. Let the war against this outrage
be continued as you have begun it, and We will,
sooner or later, be spared the disagreeable
necessity of sitting hard, cushionless seats.
with quarter-inch spaces between each board
through which the draughts of cool, bracing air
play upon shivering bodies; and while our
eyes contemplate the filthiness of our surround
ings our ears greeted by the loud and dis
gushing epithets launched at the puny mules
By the driver as he vainly endeavors to force
them into dog trot with the aid of a worn out
twenty -fve-cent switch. In cities of less popu-
laton than indianapolis the street cars are not
only provided with warmly cushioned seats ana
drawn by strong horses. but in winter small
stoves keep the atmosphere of the cars warm and
pleasant and in summer the closed cars taken
off and open ones are substituted. There is no
reason why Indianapolis should not have just as
good street railway system as other cities. and
II the press and people of the city demand it the
street car company must yield the end and
give us what we pay fora comfortable ride.

''The Pope has decided the question of
the Knights of Labor in favor of that
organization. This decision will stand so
long as the present method pursued in further

decision in their favor will be revoked

Iealth in tho Valparaiso Normal school.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
The Valparaiso Normal School may be injured
by the Chicago Inter Ocean dispatch, published
In your issue of Saturday the 10th, wherefore
We wish to say that the dispatch referred to is
absolutely false. There has not been, and is
not now, single case Of cerebro-spinal menn-
gifts in school or city; nor is there a of sick
ness in the school of any kind. The 2, 900 young
people congregated there healthy as any
equal number the continent. No disease
whatever is raging" or epidemic in the city.
The story of the dispatch must have originated
in malice. MARK L. DE Motto,

A California Book.

The largest directory publisher in
the United States is r. l.. Polk q Co.
They have offices in the leading cities
of the country, and publish regularly
the gazetteers of about thirty States
and Territories, and city directories OF
about forty cities. Some of the lead
ing business men of California, appre-
ciating the value of good gazetteer
and business directory of this State,
have been urging that firm to give us
a work in California like their East
ern publications. In response, agents
OF that firm are now here to make a
California State Gazetteer. The firm
has had years OF experience and is
abundantly able to give good work.
No pains nor expense will be spared
to make it complete in all particulars.
The information for Los Angeles and
Southern California will be taken by
most careful and experienced men.
Following is what the Chicago daily
Tribune says of their similar work for
Illinois: '..There is a vast amount oil
business information contained in this
volume, and it is so arranged that II
can be readily obtained. The book
contains nearly 2000 pages, and will
be of invaluable use to merchants and
others engaged in business throughout
the State"

juliet Last Night.
Miss Mather and her company gave
Romeo and Juliet at the Grand Opera
House last night before an audience
quite as large, both above and below
stairs, as on Monday night, when this
charming production of Shakespeare
was the initial attraction of the sea-
son. Nor was the packed house more
remarkable for itsnumbers than for its
intelligent appreciation of all the beau
ties Of the lines as they were so finely
interpreted by the cast of last night.
Many who were present on Monday
night returned to see again the inter-
esting Juliet" of Miss Mather. As
she appears in the balcony scene, one
could see her many times untired, so
warm yet chaste is her telling of that
story always new, however often it is
repeated. And it is but just less pleasing
to see her lover Romeo" as treated
by SO intelligent and painstaking an
artist rs Mr.. Paulding; while again, We
could hardly be weary to hear Mr.. Le-
viek as "Mercutio" in the Queen
Nab" speech, or in his yielding up OF
life AS Il pawn to his friendship.
For the matinee to-day Romeo and
Juliet will again be the attraction, and
for tonight Leah, the Forsoken, is
underlined.

The lightning messenger has for

he escaped from the city prison and
the several disturbances he has caused
in the vicinity of the Nadeau. Yes
terday he was at his old haunt, sitting
on the stairs of the Nadeau, and an
noying the ladies andlpassers-by, with
his vacant stare. Sergeant Jeffries
took him to the police station and
booked him as insane. He made a
terrible fuss when he was arrested,
and raised quite a sensation by his

THE COMING ELECTION.
Conventions and Ward Meeting:
to be Held,

to be Held.
The political pot is beginning to
boil in real earnest, and names OF
candidates for City Councilmen are
frequently heard. Whether these are
used without the consent of the own
ers is not known, but it is certain that
both parties are bent on putting the
best men possible in the field.
Tonight, at half-past Z o'clock,
there will be a joint meeting of the
Republican and Democratic City Com
| mittees to select names for the Free
nolders ticket to supply the vacan-
cies which occurred by the
declination of three gentlemen who
were named at the last meeting
Tomorrow evening the Republican
primaries will be held in the various
wards for the selection of representa-
| tives to the convention to be held
Saturday evening and at the same
time ward caucuses will be held for
the selection OF candidates for Coun-
cilmen. Nobody of very great strength
or ability has as yet been mentioned
in this Litter connection, although the
aspirants are very numerous. On
Monday night the Democratic ward
meetings will be held, on which occa-
sion several good names will be pre-
scented to the voters Tor their support
as Councilmen. Among others men
toned are Chas. A. Schroeder, OF
the First Ward, and Il. II. Ling
and J. Kuhrts of the Second.
A thorough search is being made for
proper people to present to the voters
on the Democratic ticket, for it is in
tended that it shall be so strong that
it will lead the other tickets by con-
siderable majority. On Friday even
ing the Prohibition convention will
meet and decide as to the ticket it
Will place in the field, and it is proba-
BILE that there will be at least three
candidates for each position in the
| field on the 9TH of December.
